Parts Show at Chicago, June 14-77
Wednesday, June 14, and Thursday, June 15, will be Jobber Days at the 1939 National Radio Parts Trade Show at the Stevens Hotel, in Chicago. Friday, June 16, and Saturday. June 17, will be given over to the general trade, with the servicemen carrying on their principal activities on Friday, and the amateurs on Saturday.
This is the first time in the history of radio trade shows that specific days have been set aside for various sections of the radio parts industry. Jobbers will thus have an opportunity to discuss problems with their manufacturers, and on general trade days, servicemen and amateurs will find the booths manned by technicians who are familiar with the problems of the technical groups.
More than a hundred manufacturers had contracted for over 130 booths in the 1939 Show by the first of March.
Ken Hathaway of the Show Corporation reports that the number of exhibitors, as well as the amount of space contracted for, is running ahead of last year's record by nearly a month.

Facsimile network formed by MBS
That Facsimile transmission and reception is no longer "around the corner" has been conclusively demonstrated by the formation of a Facsimile network which began operations on March 11. The three Mutual stations WGN, WOR, and WLW making the chain have been transmitting facsimile locally for more than a year and will alternate 30 minute period presentations from 2 to 3:30 a.m. EST.
J. R. Poppele, chief engineer of WOR states that while many problems have yet to be solved, broadcasters and manufacturers of facsimile receivers are in a much more encouraging position than were the pioneers of radio. Of interest to servicemen and dealers is his comment that about $15.00 per year will be spent by the owner of a facsimile receiver for paper, parts and service.
Further indication that facsimile is hot, is the news that Finch Telecommunications Labs, have engaged Harry Bressler, famous artist to handle special cartoons for facsimile programs.
Ralph H. hinder has been appointed Sales Promotion and Advertising Manager of the American Record Corp., New York City.
